Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mythtv-frontend
Mythtv's frontend application uses a build in function eject to eject the media drive. Unfortunetly it looks like there are lots of problems with getting this to work if the system automounts. There are a few different hacks that people have used to get the eject menu item to work. Both involve editing the eject action in /usr/share/mythtv/optical_menu.xml. Some users change the action to EXEC umount /dev/dvd; eject, but most users seem to be changing this to EXEC eject. The system's eject application seems to be a lot more reliable than myth's. Using this line I was able to get the eject menu to work. This is a big deal for those of use with htpc cases that don't have buttons. ** Affects: mythtv (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- mythfrontend should use the eject command not myth's eject function https://launchpad.net/bugs/99925 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
